I´m pretty new at programming coffee, and I´ve been trying for some time now to change the point-allocation for existing polygons (eg. polygon 0: points 0, 1, 2, 0; change it to polygon 0: points 5, 6, 7, 5; just like it is displayed in the structure manager). How do I set this information? (I looked both into the "Create a polyobject using C.O.F.F.E.E." and "Simple Polygon Problem" threads, but unfortunately I could not figure out how to do this).

Any help would be appreciated.

    p.b = 6;  
    p.c = 7;  
    p.d = 5;  
    obj->SetPolygon(0, p);  
    obj->Message(MSG_UPDATE);

Thanks, that did the job, now it works like a charm. I had some similar code in my plugin, but like your first version I used p.a to set the polygons, but you need to use p->a to get it working.
